距离最后的考试只有近两个月的时间，最后的冲刺序幕正式拉开。英语复习到这个阶段，最重要的就是作文。要想在最后的考试成绩中脱颖而出，现阶段就必须要把精力放在分值占在30分的写作上。

考研英语中大作文的要求是内容切题、表达清楚、文字连贯、句式多变和语言规范。小作文考察点在信息点的覆盖、语言的准确性、文章组织的连贯性上。

其中小作文占10分，分为求职信、祝贺信、道歉信、询问信、推荐信、感谢信、邀请信、辞职信等等二十多种应用文。每个类别都有相对固定的语言模式，都有固定词语要求。

申请信主要用于申请奖学金、求学、申请出国签证等，这些申请往往通过申请信来请求。

写作“三步走”：

申请的具体内容和缘由→自己的情况和条件→提出要求，如回信、面试等等。

注意：第一，语气要诚挚友好千万不要表现出强求的意思；第二，对于申请的内容和原因一定要写得非常清楚；第三，尽管不能表现出强求的意思，但是期望得到的心情一定要表达出来。

第二篇：英语小作文---询问信

距离最后的考试只有近两个月的时间，最后的冲刺序幕正式拉开。英语复习到这个阶段，最重要的就是作文。要想在最后的考试成绩中脱颖而出，现阶段就必须要把精力放在分值占在30分的写作上。

考研英语中大作文的要求是内容切题、表达清楚、文字连贯、句式多变和语言规范。小作文考察点在信息点的覆盖、语言的准确性、文章组织的连贯性上。

其中小作文占10分，分为求职信、祝贺信、道歉信、询问信、推荐信、感谢信、邀请信、辞职信等等二十多种应用文。每个类别都有相对固定的语言模式，都有固定词语要求。

询问信是希望获取信息的信件，分为三个部分：1. 说明自己的计划或目的，也就是询问信息的原因；2. 征询具体信息；3. 期待回复并表示感谢。

写作“三步走”：

引言部分自我介绍并讲明询问目的→发展部分是询问的主要内容→最后期待回复并表示感谢。

注意：

为了让对方一目了然，也便于回答，在内容的安排上应该简明扼要，可以用数字列出具体问题，如first, second, third or 1、2、3。

由于询问有可能给对方带来麻烦，所以语言应简洁、清晰、无歧义。语气礼貌、恳切。
